• Movement and Dance – Students of all levels will explore dance fundamentals while learning combos to their favorite Broadway songs! They will train in theater dance, jazz, tap, and more, which are essential styles for musical theater performers while focusing on dance technique and performance.

• Masterclass – A unique opportunity for students to learn directly from a renowned musical theater performer, who will share their industry experiences and offer valuable real-world insights.
